R3.4.1; WinXP
The ContainerSelectionGroup as found inside the ContainerSelectionDialog
and also the ResourceAndContainerGroup -- itself found in the {Save-As
Dialog, New-File-Wizard, New-Folder-Wizard} -- has exactly the UI that I
need in my RCP.
But the ContainerSelectionGroup class is in the package
org.eclipse.ui.internal.ide.misc ... I can use the class and the UI
appears all fine, but the use of "internal" is deprecated ...
Is there a reusable version of this class?
thanks,
Paul

Thanks, Wim -- I'll try and keep track of releases (we are already
behind, being on 3.4.1 rather than 3.5 ...). [Belated reply due to
having gotten sucked into another project ...] -Paul
